Abstract excerpt
Purpose: p62/Sequestosome 1 (p62) is a stress-induced protein that is involved in several different intracellular pathways, including regulation of aspects of protein degradation. p62 levels are elevated in several types of cataracts. We investigated whether levels of p62 and its phosphorylation were altered in the lenses of Cx50D47A mice, which express a mutant of connexin50 (Cx50) that leads to cataracts and...
